My colleague in the stockbroker's office is a very pretty lady with a very attractive smile. Whenever she smiles, she displays the best looking set of teeth I have ever seen. However, she was not like this all the time. Once when I complimented her about her wonderful smile, she remarked that she have had her teeth straightened out by braces and had her teeth all cleaned and whitened at her dentist. While it was costly, it was worth it because she now has a million-dollar smile.

In fact, it's possible that you might incur no real costs at all, because of the home remedies for teeth whitening readily available to you right now. This way, the biggest challenge you are going to have to face is the rinsing out of the funny taste that you might have when you've finished.

Hydrogen peroxide is the most common and popular natural lightening agent. It can be combined with lemon juice, baking soda, baking powder etc. Lemon juice and strawberries may not be the best home remedies for teeth whitening. They can cause an acidity which can weaken your teeth.

Why spend thousands of dollars and valuable time taking trips to the dentist to have them put some weird chemicals in your mouth to bleach your teeth? Why go the store and spend your hard earned money on whitening strips that have a gross taste and take up to a week or more to work before you even see any real results?

Some popular home remedies for whitening teeth involve using lemon juice or orange peels. These methods will work to make your teeth whiter but the acidity can actually damage the enamel of your teeth making you more susceptible to tooth decay. Other popular remedies involve the use of hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide acts as a bleaching agent and is very effective at whitening teeth.

Brushing your teeth with wood ash from your fire place is another way people used to whiten their teeth. Wood ash whitens your teeth is because it contains potassium hydroxide, aka lye. However, only hard wood ash contains significant concentrations of potassium hydroxide. Using hard wood ash too often as a tooth whitening agent could significantly damage your teeth over time.

The strips, trays and kits are all designed to keep the whitening agents on your teeth for the longest period possible for the ultimate in whitening power. These are often worn for a long period of time or overnight and may be combined with a rinse or toothpaste for the best benefits. If you are looking for something a little more relaxed or if your teeth are only minimally stained or discolored you should consider the brush on liquid teeth whitening products.

The acid based method can only be used once a week and should not be left on the teeth for more than five minutes as excessive acid exposure can break down the essential and irreplaceable enamel that covers and protects your teeth. The abrasive based method can be used daily for a variety of benefits including teeth whitening.
